As long as the young man did not intentionally touch the Mus'haf with his hand soiled with semen, there is nothing upon him. He should wash the outer surface of the Mus'haf. The preponderant opinion is that semen is pure, but it is considered repulsive. It is not permissible to intentionally touch the Mus'haf with something repulsive. What he did by washing and moving the Mus'haf was correct.
