The N64 development manual and SDK leaked a few years ago. Here's the documentation for the curious: http://level42.ca/projects/ultra64/Documentation/man/

I wonder what the legality of using the manuals in homebrew and emulator development is.

In the US, it's almost certainly illegal. (though admittedly very unlikely to be prosecuted)

All materials used for RE must have been obtained legitimately, and as far as I'm aware any legit way to obtain this sort of manual for console development involves/involved signing an NDA.

Wow, I loved thumbing through this. Very informative.
