Can't you just apply for an American passport with his birth certificate?

Sounds more like a question of getting British Citizenship, lots of threads on the subject.

As a US citizen, get him:
* birth certificate
* social security number
* US passport
As a UK citizen, get him:
* UK passport
* consular record of birth
