You can use the measure tool to place horizontal / vertical / both at the cursor.

Takes a little practice
The co-ordinates show in the Gimp info area at the bottom. Helps if you zoom in. This from a recent post.
Gimp can add a pair of guides at a point using the measure tool. Ctrl-Alt and a click-and-click again adds the guides. The bottom right corner.
And a little animation showing that.https://i.imgur.com/oYi4TRG.mp4
This is a little more clear animation https://i.imgur.com/jBYM0zU.mp4 and it goes
color pick the point
switch to the measure tool shift-m (I would make a better shortcut if I intended a lot of use)
click to fix the point
ctrl-alt-click for a pair of guides
