Other than a otsuki or uchia has any member from any other clan unlocked the rinnegan. According to the official explanation, all that's needed is Ashura's and Indra's chakra to recreate Hagoromo's. If Hashirama had implanted Madara's cells, he'd have rinnegan. Also, the eyes of the sage refers to the Sharingan, not the rinnegan. Since Rinnegan exists in both of the Sage's sons, and it by defintion is not an uchiha-only power.
