You can check out this page for limited drop data from specific chests. If it doesn't drop from a chest there really isn't any solid information.

EDIT: Looking through that list just now it appears that even most of them don't have drop data.

It would take far too large a collection of data to say anything conclusive about drop rates of black dyes or certain weapon skins from end chests. The data just isn't available.

I think for most people it would just take a lot of fun out of the game to record data while playing.

I don't think there's a resource that would really give the OP what he wants. Maybe instead it'd be a better idea to start by deciding what items you want and then looking what drops them (ie. going the other way around).

See the drop rate article on the unofficial wiki. Keep in mind that a lot of the data collected (on various items) was done years ago by a small base of contributors. (Most of the pages has not been updated in years. Also some of the items (pages) listed are templates (placeholders) and do not contain any actual data collected.)

The Drop rates article on the official wiki offer more current data, but tracking is limited to 14 or so items (mostly special events stuff).

Pretty much the same on the unofficial wiki.

The only thing ive ever seen was once when i was on wiki checking out the uw foes.
with checking each foes own page there was a small part with the ecto drop rate from its droppers - smites were 2% chance and aatxes/mindblades/dryders were around 4%.
The problem with trying other things is - most things can drop anywhere and in any mode.
Ive had a ruby drop in paineng peninsula ( place with the naga cave in factions) from a low lvl crimson skull ranger and that shocked me lol .
