I'd treat this like any other source level port, assuming that your BBB
has Python installed and a usable network connection to your home LAN:

- use the tool of your choice to copy the python sources, scripts, etc
  onto the BBB, i.e. ftp, scp or sftp

- recompile then on the BBB, run your regression test set to make sure
  they work correctly there, and install as you want.

- then make an image copy of the BBB's filesystem, check that its
  bootable and start copying it onto the other BBBs

If you find problems with the Python stuff, apply fixes, backport them to
the RPi and retest them there. Rince, spin dry and repeat until the bugs
are squashed on all systems.

Do you use any source management system (git, cvs or ...)?

If not, consider setting one up and establishing a regularly backed-up
central repository for your code and access from all the places where you
compile and use the programs. You'll find that doing this makes code
maintenance a lot easier: fix the code on whatever system you found the
problem on, commit the changes and then pull down the fixes, recompile
and retest on the other machines. Anything like this is much easier to do
once you have version control up and running.
