my kernel config just mentions the sa driver. (no zero or one etc)

cd /dev
Makedev sa0

Does your kernel include "device sa"?

Your tape should be recognized as /dev/.*sa[0-9]

For instance :

Waiting 5 seconds for SCSI devices to settle
sa0 at ahc0 bus 0 target 5 lun 0
sa0: <HP C1533A 9503> Removable Sequential Access SCSI-2 device
sa0: 10.000MB/s transfers (10.000MHz, offset 8)
sa1 at ahc0 bus 0 target 10 lun 0
sa1: <SEAGATE AIT 03j0> Removable Sequential Access SCSI-2 device
sa1: 20.000MB/s transfers (10.000MHz, offset 15, 16bit)

Sa0 is included in the Kernel, but the only thing I get is:

pass0 at ahc0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
pass0: <HP C7200 140D> Removable Changer SCSI-3 device
pass0: 3.300MB/s transfers

The system recognizes only a passthrough device.

You probably want to start talking to the FreeBSD-SCSI AT FreeBSD DOT org mailing list to figure out why you aren't getting a tape device, (sa, sequential

access).
