I'm a complicated man ;-)
I made some test with your tip and I find that I need to swich in the "pass without override" to update the render region in the "locked pass".
Here is a draft script who help a bit. I select an object in the pass with overrides and run the script. It select the object material but in the pass without override. Then I can open the render tree and edit the parameters. It supposed there are no overrides in the default pass.
//Select_Mat_from_first_pass.js
//guillaume.laforge.3d(at)
gmail.com
//select an object and run
var oSel = Selection(0);
var oCurrentPass = GetCurrentPass();
var oPasses = ActiveProject.ActiveScene.Passes;
//get the default pass (with no overrides)
oPass = oPasses(0);
SetCurrentPass(oPass);
//Get the material from the default pass
SelectObj(oSel.Material)
//switch back to current pass
SetCurrentPass(oCurrentPass);
To update the render tree (I'm to lazy, but it should'nt be difficult to make it work inside the first script) :
//Update the locked material
var oCurrentPass = GetCurrentPass();
var oPasses = ActiveProject.ActiveScene.Passes;
oPass = oPasses(0);
SetCurrentPass(oPass);
SetCurrentPass(oCurrentPass);

I wasn't sure why you were creating new passes and deleting overrides. That
seemed a bit drastic
