Open up /etc/mtree/BSD.usr.dist with your favourite pager and search for
the man directory. The following command will work, more or less. ;-)

/^        man

Note that it's 8 spaces and not a tab.

Now you know how to find out for yourself in future.  The short answer,
which you'll see for yourself, is that the cat directories are owned by
man:wheel and all the other directories by root:wheel.  They're all mode
0755.

Ciao,
Sheldon.
