Uh, no. The Shinobi library contains only basic OS stuff like reading
and writing files on memorycards, and reading the GD-ROM drive etc.
The CRC-routine is part of the function to write VMS files. There are
no separate encoding/decoding/CRC routines, and there certainly are no
internet-/mail-related functions in it.

The DC boot ROM is linked with the Shinobi library, so most of the
Shinobi code can be looked at by disassembling the ROM.
