The correct answer is between the seminiferous tubules.  

The interstitial endocrine cells that produce testosterone are called Leydig cells (interstitial cells of Leydig). Their function is to release androgen hormones like testosterone, androstenedione and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). Secretion of androgen is stimulated by the pituitary hormone luteinizing hormone (LH).

The answer is

Testicles

Explanation:

Interstitial cells of Leydig, also known as Leydig cells are found adjacent to the seminiferous tubules inside the testicle of male species. They produce secretions known as testosterone in the presence of luteinizing hormone (LH). These cells are polyhedral in shape displaying a large prominent nucleus, an eosinophilic cytoplasm and numerous lipid-filled vesicles.
