Have a look at pg_extractor. It is essentially a pg_dump but with many more options.

I don't know if there is but you can get the function definition:
SELECT * FROM pg_get_functiondef('functionname'::regproc);
or
SELECT * FROM pg_get_functiondef('functionname(list of parameters data types)'::regprocedure);
If you want to export you may use the -t and -o switches.
