If a soldier is going to separate from his wife, and the couple live on post, which means the soldier does not see any of that BAH, is she entitled to 80% of BAH, even tho he does not have any control over it?

Read through AR 608-99, paragraph 2-6. It's not 80%. It will depend on a number of factors, including the presence (or absence) of a court order or agreement, the total number of supported family members, any family member(s) from previous marriages, whether or not she is staying in housing, etc.

I believe the financial responsibility without a court separation is BAH Difference. The difference between BAH with dependents and without.

That is a question that is not easy to answer. Go to JAG and they will lay it all out for you.
