The scene was written during rehearsals for the original production though not quite the way it was played at Donmar. (i don't remember the specifics). It was even rehearsed, once, late one afternoon in the rehearsal hall in NY prior to Boston. To my knowledge the whole idea of Bobby even having an experimental/curious gay encounter was not mentioned again, at least seriously.

Thanks so much, garyd. Do you remember where you read or heard about this? I'd like to save this for my notes, and it would be helpful to know. I've been thinking that when all this is over, I need to read the several Company pre-rehearsal manuscripts at the Library for the Performing Arts. I can't believe that I hadn't checked till recently whether there are scripts there. Several are listed in the online catalog. But if the Robert-Peter scene was written during rehearsals, rehearsed one afternoon and then dropped, it may not be in any of them.
