I'm sorry, but I'm not understanding. Maybe if you post a picture? I'm thinking you're saying that the tortoise has something coming out of the hole in the tail? It might be what we call prolapse. If so, that could be the penis, or it might be just the cloaca swelling and inverting. It could also be part of the female's reproductive organs. At any rate, we'll need to see pictures. My advice for now, until we see what it is, is keep the tortoise sitting in a shallow bit of water so the area involved doesn't dry out.
