I don't think that being related to Hashirama is mandatory to awaken some form of Wood Release... I feel like we already had this kind of discussion (not me and you in particular, "we" as a wiki), but it was never stated that Hashirama was the only one who could awaken Wood Release: he was simply the only one to have awakened it until now.

You know, I always wondered why Sasuke never thought of seeking power from the White Sage Snake during the Time he was with Oro.

Maybe no one ever told him about Ryuchi Cave? Naruto spent three years with Jiraiya (who's more prone to sharing secrets than Orochimaru), but if I recall correctly he learnt about Mount Myoboku and senjutsu only after Jiraiya's death. Since Orochimaru wanted to take over Sasuke's body, it makes sense if he never told him about a way to become even stronger than he already was
