One Canoptek Scarab in a Swarm

Is there any WYSIWYG conflict or modeling for advantage conflict if I take my Blood Angels Librarian in Terminator Armor model and add Sanguinary Guard angel wings (just the wings; not the jump pack)?
I'm just trying to make my Blood Angels HQ unit look more Blood Angel-y. And going for the rule of cool.

I think so, but blood angels are not my strong point. You should be able to give him wing, as long as you don't give him any special rules (you can give him special rules in friendly games, just not in tournaments)

"Archon Yulliptidon sat apon a throne made of polished glass, which gleamed with magnificence in the rays of the dying suns, beautifully suspended above the the many razor sharp peaks that where Commorragh. The archon held within his hands a a delicate pyramid of sculpted crystal, from which emitted a faint glow, an echo of the soundless screams of pain belonging to countless tortured souls forever trapped within. The room in which the archon sat in was something like a throne room, but displayed apon the walls where helm of every color, but all the same in size and shape. Some bore eagles on their foreheads, and others still contained the decapitated heads of their previous owners. Two huge, beautifully carved iron double doors, engraved with intricate runes of pain and suffering, opened at the far end of the room, to reveal a tall, elegant dark eldar warrior, clad in armor made from bone and flesh. "lord Yulliptidon, you asked for my presence?" Said the arrival, " to what do I owe the pleasure?". The archon raised his elongated head, skin as pale as a full moon, eyes as vivid as a horrible nightmare. " I did not ask for you, Thrayon, I ordered your presence. Do not think to much for your self, for truly, you are not much past a feral that one would find on the streets. As for why I have ordered you to my palace, it is because their is a task that I wish you to preform. I wish you and you kabal to cleanse the imperial out fort of Sargosain Gastienagan." Thrayon was both aghast and interested at what the archon had just said. "Such a task would stretch my kabal to its limits, only a great reward would be enough to do a deed like this." Yulliptidon was outraged by the the proposal of a "great reward" by Thrayon, but did not let his anger show, hiding it with a cold smile that hid his evil intentions surprisingly well. The archon was was famous for never telling a lie in his life, but was very fond of veiled double speak, and this was no exception. "Do not worry, Thrayon, you shall receive what you deserve." Thrayon, happy with this outcome, left to carry out Yulliptidons task. Little did he know what was coming. Thrayon had done a thousand evil deeds, and what he deserved was a horrible death equal to to all those he had caused. Yulliptidons smiled. He was going to have fun."

no there wouldn't be a problem with it as wings and similar do never count for line of sight. If your opponent wants to shoot something behind the libby and the wing are in the way just rotate him a bit and you should be fine.

The wings are just decoration. They would mean nothing. Wings, tails, weapons, and other decorative elements are ignored for drawing LoS.
You could use the Wings to represent the psychic power Wings of Sanguinious

My Winged Termy Libby will probably have Shield of Sanguinus and Unleash Rage and be popping out of a Land Raider, but he'll probably be the coolest looking model on the table.

Yeah, as long as it's just a modelling choice, there's no issue.

You guys have that mostly correct, with the addition of "to the model with the wings"
Wings do not count for line of sight to the model if all you can see is the Wings, tail, weapons, or other decorative elements.
Wings, tails, weapons, and other decorative elements block Line of sight as normal to things behind said model.

By the way, these are the wings I'm thinking about attaching to my Blood Angels Librarian in Terminator Armor:

I've attached Sanguinary Guard wings to my Chaplain for exactly the same reason, and noone has *ever* had a problem with it (mind you, I've not gone to tournament either).
My own personal opinion is the Rule of Cool wins out here.
