Online pass isn't tied to Gamertag?

It is. Read above. I used my hard drive on a different Xbox and could not use online features. It's tied to the console. Which I think is terrible.

I was able to use it on a different console.

Solidice is on the money, it is tied to your XBL account.

No. I put my hard drive, with my GT and every item I've ever downloaded, onto a different Xbox and was prompted to purchase the online pass again

Well WTH! I've got two xboxs in my apartment. I'll have to test it out, because it totally didn't work. And that was literally my hard drive. There was no change other than the console.

Did the persons Xbox you used have an online pass?

no, my brother doesn't play sports games and doesn't even own any EA games on 360 other than Battlefield 3. I just took my Hard drive from mine and put it in his 360.

It doesn't work if you just hotswap the HDD, you have to re-download the pass from your download history. I've done it before, I use it to play at my In-Laws' house when I'm over there.

That's so weird.. Since it just downloads to the HD
