Valve have just updated the Source 1 SDK on GitHub to the latest code based on Team Fortress 2, effectively making TF2 code source available (bsky.app)

This is just awesome. Though it is weird because they went after that open source tf2 remake a few years ago, maybe the team will continue now.

This is the first I'm hearing of that, but I would assume any project would get sued if they copied any art assets, songs, and trademarks (logos, characters, etc). And at the time, any code they used would be suspect because of the TF2 source leak.

Obligatory IANAL.
