Oh my, poor baby. It really does look like a spinal deformity. Can't say for sure without looking at radiographs taken by a veterinarian. Does it seem especially tight or firm/hard in that area?
Not especially tight, but the ribs in the area do feel odd.

Re: Possible Problem
Odd as in how? Mushy? When he moves around, and you have your hand on that area, can you feel the muscles moving/pulsing?
I just wonder what is going on with that area since he didn't have that problem when you got him.

Re: Possible Problem
It's firm, ribs feel somewhat lumpy, and they stick out more there, not smooth like normal.
