Even Genji could have known Natsuhi and the child...come on, he could not be sure that Natsuhi NEVER did see his/her genital (Devil Proof and so). Why couldn't he go for the safe option and just say that there're "someone" on the phone, instead of some "young man"?
I actually went and re-read the scene in question. Genji doesn't openly say 'it was a young man'. He says he's unsure about the caller's identity, carefully trying to avoid disclosing any information unless asked, and when Natsuhi asks what they sound like, he says 'I believe it was a young man'. Now, that seems to be the most safe choice to go with, because it's easier to have a heavily voiced woman than a high-pitched voiced man to the point where you'd mistake them for a woman.

As for the Devil's Proof concerning Genji's certainty that Natsuhi hadn't seen the baby's genital, it's possible to know whether Natsuhi didn't even hold it once in the three days she kept it.
