Also can I be considered as a internal connecting passenger without having to actually go out of terminal 3 to get to terminal 5 myself? I'm hoping that as AA and BA are alliance partners and that I am flying business on both flights will help. Anyone? Thanks.

Yes, you can check bags through to DUB (assuming the connection is same-day and your BA fare is not hand baggage only, etc.). Almost identical question just asked here, http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/onewo...-question.html

I am not sure what you mean by "internal connecting passenger". You will need to take the bus from T3 to T5, and you will need to be re-screened. Follow the flight connections signs.
