Does your lit' man have 2 incisions from the surgery? That strikes me as weird, I used to work at a vet office and I never saw a neuter surgery with more than one incision.
I too was worried about needing a cone after surgery so I called my vet and she said that since he had internal stitches it wasn't necessary. The chances of him infecting the area were very slim from licking, but we should prevent licking as much as possible because they iodine type stuffed they sprayed on it could upset his tummy.
