    Only one will not be much effect of your site. After all better then best delete it if you can by your link builder.

    Yes it will effect your site, maybe not much, but its something you dont really need or want. Attempt to remove the link as soon as possible.

    One link won't have much bad effect but it's better to get rid of such links.

    If you have a adult site then no problem in getting backlink from another adult site.

    Seen as how links help send signals to search engines as to the quality, content and theme of your site YES porn links can and will hurt. They are commonly used for negative SEO attacks for this very reason.

    Sounds like the rest of the links he was building are going to be junk as well...building you own links to rank better is against Google's TOS.

    I think that one or two links wouldn't be detremental but if you see more you might want to use the disavow tool?
