That's not true, it might look like your maternal grandfather's penis

your mom has penis dni in her, its just not being expressed but she can pass it. a good example of how this works is baldness and colorblindness, women carry those genes but they dont express themselves in them as often

The Y chromosome has surprisingly little information/genes in it. Basically it contains one gene that activates all of the male-only genes on other chromosomes. So no, maternal chromosomes/genes contribute to male genital formation too and half of your father’s chromosomes/genes (that affect genital formation) will not be inherited by you
