I think that conversation definitely lead in the direction of all of us supposing that it was a penetrative assault. The concept is supposed to be torturing Hotch, and I believe that trying to keep the fact of being raped from the team would qualify, more than the actual assault. Hotch is a very private person, and having his life turned upside down by his own team would tear him apart more than anything Foyet could do himself. What would make a control freak feel more powerful than taking Hotch's masculinity away from him? His whole persona is based on being the Alpha male- taking Hotch down in the most emotional way possible would be irresistable.
Then again, they haven't even had Reid assaulted that way yet, and he's one of the femmiest characters on the show!
