Questions

Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the BD550?

Yes. The symbol is Pinmap_Generic:Q_NPN_1B_2E_3C_4C and the footprint EasyEDA_Cloud:TO-3_L39.4-W26.7-P10.92-BL, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.

What package is the BD550?

TO-3, with 4 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.

Where is the BD550 datasheet?

SPTECH publishes it: the Datasheet link on this page opens it.

Where can I order the BD550?

JLCPCB lists it as part C2907828, with 4 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.

What can replace the BD550?

Parts like it in the library: the 2N3773 by SPTECH, the MJ15015 by onsemi, the 2N5686 by SPTECH and the 2N6678 by SPTECH. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.
