The basic SM decal sheet has
Ultramarines
Dark Angels
Blood Angels
Imperial and crimson fists
Black Templars
White Scars
Salamanders
In addition, the Space Wolves have their own Decal Sheet, and I suspect the new BA boxes have a new BA decal sheet.

Nope. The new BA kits come with all molded shoulderpads, so you don't really need 'em. The Baal Pred comes with the generic SM vehicle sheet. Personally, I prefer the molded pads. Painting detail is so much easier than messing with transfers!

But just Blood Angels. The "blood droplet". No Flesh tearers, Blood drinkers,etc,etc. ?

I don't know about the Wolves, SS. The Bangels pads, as far as chapter iconography, are strictly Bangels, and not the successors. But there is a wide variety of pad designs, including angels, chalices, etc. The GW website also has packs of metal pads for Flesh Tearers, but that's it.

Doesn't BOLS have a whole bunch of decal sets make up for use on printers that can make decals?

No idea. But if they do, I'd be interested in a link.

The
Bolter & Chainsword has a whole slew of fan-made decals for download. Lots of Chapters not done by GW...

I don't understand what that means. You specifically requested a Chapter or something?

I had someone go there and make some decals on their printer with decal paper. They did not turn out well. It was difficult to get the proper size/fit, detail was poor/blurry. That was about 2 years back. It could be the person & equipment used. that was just my experience.

Gotcha. I've not done it myself yet but have heard no complaints from anyone.

Yeah, it just might have been "technical difficulties". I cant complain- I cant do it myself! I was thinking of doing an Emperor Scythes or Lamenters chapter & you cant get details for that easily.
I saw in the new Blood angels codex that Lamenters are a Blood angels successor- i didnt know that.
