I use System Configuration Manager 2012, SP1 to PXE -> Windows PE -> OSD Several computers

I got a Lenovo T520 in the door yesterday and wanted to OSD it but in the task sequence step, I couldn't select a harddrive, (the machine has a working vista installation on it)

I have seen this problem before, usually that means the boot image doesn't have correct storage drivers, but For Lenovo T520, I had already applied the storage driver.

I hooked up another Lenovo T520, and its able to get past the step just like expected

What on earth could be the cause I can OSD 1 T520 laptop and not another one? .. they are the exact same model

Check the SATA mode in the BIOS. It should be set to AHCI. I don't know about Lenovos but I've seen Dells where the BIOS had the SATA mode set to RAID. Also, I've seen where Intel Rapid Start/Rapid Storage or Intel Fast Boot features can also mess with it. It's best to disable those features.
