If God or the devi exist, what would be their gender - based upon the descriptions that the "holy" scriptures describes.

Or in other words:
"People who don't believe in the existence of unicorns - what colour are their eyes?"

If God existed, God would not have gender (or "sex" as it should be.).
Sex evolved very early as a means of slowing the infestation of parasites in organisms. The changing DNA made it difficult for the parasites to infest the next generation.
Since God does not reproduce, and is not bothered by parasites, other than the clergy, God would not need to have sex.

No way to tell. Although in English versions, when a pronoun is used, it is generally male, that simply reflects a deficiency of the language, which has no gender-nonspecific pronoun, unlike French (which does).

Probably like the other worldly things in Dogma are....without the necessary stuff to determine a gender.

They are neither. God is deity and has no gender. Satan is a fallen angel and has no gender either. The purpose of gender was to procreate. God nor angels procreate.

Male.

It's pointless speculation, but the 'scriptures' all came about in patriarchal and fundamentally mysoginistic societies, so that's why they're all male.

Why are you asking an atheist this question? We do not believe in this sillyness and certainly would have no opinion on the gender of imaginary creatures.
