It looks like a scab but I can't really tell. It does not look like something to be overly concerned about at this time. It is a lump that is attached to his body? I suggest you try to soak it with some dilute hydrogen peroxide and then try to remove it. If it is a scab it should come off. If it is a lump that is attached to the body then he should see a vet.
