Question
Lump
Lump  
Picture that goes along with my question.  If this lump is supposed to be there, what is it?  You can't really see the black spec, but this is the lump I am talking about.

Answer
Hi, Brittany

The little lumps you see are his scent glands.  They are entirely normal, and are the site of production of his dark, waxy, sex musk.  The black spec is a little bit of the exudate, which builds up in the pockets on either side of his prepuce.

So no worries.  Your bunny looks fine in that department.
