Why is it masculine?
Servizio is masculine because it derives from the Latin "servitium," which was itself masculine. However, the gender was preserved through Italian's evolution from Latin not because of the -ium ending itself, but because Latin second declension neuter nouns ending in -ium typically became masculine in Romance languages when they survived into Italian. The -ium ending was characteristic of Latin neuter nouns, but Italian reanalyzed many of these as masculine, particularly those that became -izio/-izo in Italian phonetic evolution.
