Is there an item, in ftb modpack, that allows, if placed into the chest, pulls near by items into that chest?

Not yet as far as i know, there are several ways of picking up different kinds of items though.
What are you planing to use it for?

You could use water streams to push water to an obsidian pipe, a bit unpractical and low tech, but it should get the job done

Another alternative are Turtles from ComputerCraft

http://computercraft.info/wiki/index.php?title=Turtle.suck

It will only pick up items if they are one block in front of it (you can also choose to suck items from below or above the turtle).... so you can use it along with water flows or, if you want to have some fun, program some turtles to pace around the quarry you're building, constantly sucking items up.

If you power an obsidian pipe, it extends it's pickup range. A redstone engine will pick up items one block away; a stone engine will pick up items five blocks away. The engine needs to be directly connected to the pipe (the same way a wooden pipe needs a dedicated engine), and only the basic Buildcraft engines seem to work here; Forestry and Railcraft engines seem to be buggy in this regard, completely disabling the pipe.
