Estómago is masculine because it derives from Latin "stomacus," which was itself borrowed from Greek "stomachos" (στόμαχος), and this Latin masculine noun retained its gender when it evolved into Spanish. Like many Spanish nouns ending in "-o," it follows the typical pattern of masculine gender inheritance from Latin masculine nouns.
