@All
Here if it's mentioned the Girl's mother is the only daughter of her father so that we could get brother as the answer. Here the original answer would be data insufficient or cannot be determined.

Let's break down the statement:
"He is the son of the daughter of the father of my uncle."
"Father of my uncle" - This refers to the grandfather.
"Daughter of the father of my uncle" - This is the father's sister, which means the girl's father's sister.
"Son of the daughter of the father of my uncle" - This is the son of the girl's father's sister.
So, the boy is girl's cousin.
"He is the son of the daughter of the father of my uncle."
"Father of my uncle" - This refers to the grandfather.
"Daughter of the father of my uncle" - This is the father's sister, which means the girl's father's sister.
"Son of the daughter of the father of my uncle" - This is the son of the girl's father's sister.
So, the boy is girl's cousin.

See, if the girl's uncle a maternal one.
Boy is the brother of that girl.
If the girl's uncle - paternal one.
Then, in that case boy is the cousin of that girl.

So, the boy's mother is the sister of the girl. Therefore, the boy is the nephew of the girl.
