He'll probably be fine. Tomato leaves are edible, although I don't know why anyone would want to eat one.

Thank you, I was VERY worried, because people said they were toxic.

Hello, you must remove the vine and any leaves from the tomato before feeding to your guinea pig. These are poisonous. This includes the stalk directly attached to the tomato (it looks a bit like a spider). But looking to your situation i think everything will be ok.
