Chimerism is that different parts of your body are made up from very different cells. Fusing two Embryos can do that. However, as indicated in Randell's post, this doesn't mean that all the genes are in the reproductive organs. If you fuse two embryos, you have "A" and " B" cells from the respective Embryos. The reproductive organs can be made from "A" cells. If the maternity test happens to gather DNA from a "B" region, you wont even positively match with yourself.

It wasnt clear to me how far the Chimerism definition goes, but if you get an organ transplant i think you're technically a chimera.

Given Shin's ability, it's likely that he has a very forgiving immune system which means he doesn't reject transplantations. If a Mangekyou pattern is stored as genetic information, then every Shin would have the same base Shin DNA, and all the Mangekyou awakened by the clones would thus share a pattern.
