There is no set number of male cones that can be found in a cluster. Unlike female cones, which are usually single, there can be large numbers of male cones in cluster.

No, male cone can only produce microspores (Pollen grains).
The female cone
The male cone of the kauri tree is called a pollen cone. It produces pollen that is dispersed by the wind to fertilize the female cones.
Male cones on gymnosperms develop microspores, which eventually turn into pollen grains. These pollen grains are responsible for the transfer of male gametes to the female cone for fertilization.
The transfer of pollen from the male cone to the female cone in gymnosperms is called pollination. This process leads to the fertilization of the ovule and the development of seeds.
Female cones produce seeds. They contain the ovules that are fertilized by pollen from male cones, leading to seed development.
pollen grains are transported from the microsporangium (contained in the anther of an angiosperm flower, male cone of a coniferous plant, or male cone of other seed plants)
