Are there narration chains for the coccyx/tailbone hadith that don't go through Abu Hurairah?

Question

There are a large number of versions of the below-listed hadith relating to the coccyx/tailbone which are all attributed to Abu Hurairah.

Question: Are there narration chains for the coccyx/tailbone hadith that don't go through Abu Hurairah?

In a recent answer to How is it possible that the coccyx does not decay at all? What if the body was cremated?, the authenticity of this hadith was questioned.

Answer 1

Yes there are other narrators: In al-Mustadrak of al-Hakim it is narrated on the authority of abu Sa'id al-Khudri أبي سعيد الخدري with the wording:

يأكل التراب كل شيء من الإنسان إلا عجب ذنبه " قيل : وما هو يا رسول الله ؟ قال : " مثل حبة خردل منه ينشئون "
The earth will consume the whole of the son of Adam except the coccyx/tailbone. They asked : And what is it oh Messenger of Allah?: He said:" It is like a grain of mustard, from it they will be built".

which is "quoted" in this fatwa from islamweb where they are referring to even other sources like musnad Ahmad and sahih ibn Hebban.

Off-topic to some extent:

According this scholars site only 8 ahadith of abu Hurairah (from more than 5000 as quoted by ibn Hazm) have no backup by a (similar or identic) narration from any other sahabi in the following 9 hadith collections (the two sahihs, the sunan of abi Dawod, at-Tirmidhi, an-Nasa'i and ibn Majah, muwatta' Malik, and the musnads of Ahmad and ad-Daarimi) and these are (Only one link to one source of this hadith on abu Hurairas authority are quoted):

1. For example in sunan at-Tirmidhi in his chapter of Virtues.
2. For example in sunan at-Tirmidhi in his chapter on the description of the day of Jugement...
3. For example in sahih Muslim in his chapter of virtues, good manners and joining the ties of relationship.
4. From musnad Ahmad the hadith (see also in sahih al-Bukhari):

   عن أبي هريرة أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال أول من يدعى يوم القيامة آدم فيقال هذا أبوكم آدم فيقول يا رب لبيك وسعديك فيقول له ربنا أخرج نصيب جهنم من ذريتك فيقول يا رب وكم فيقول من كل مائة تسعة وتسعين فقلنا يا رسول الله أرأيت إذا أخذ منا من كل مائة تسعة وتسعون فماذا يبقى منا قال إن أمتي في الأمم كالشعرة البيضاء في الثور الأسود

   “The first one to be called on the Day of Resurrection will be Adam. He will say, ‘Oh Lord here I am at Your service.’ Our Lord will say: ‘Bring forth those who are to be sent to Hell from among your progeny.’ He will say, ‘O Lord, how many should I bring forth?’ He will say, ‘Bring forth from every hundred ninety nine.’” They said: “O Messenger of Allaah, if ninety nine are taken from every hundred of us, what will be left of us?” He said, “My ummah, among the other nations, is like a white hair on a black bull.”

5. The hadith "Has come to you a month ..." from musnad Ahmad (Arabic text only).
6. In sahih al-Bukhari (Chapter: If somebody reaches sixty years of age, he has no right to ask Allah for a new lease of life.)
7. This well known hadith from sahih Muslim in the book of prayers.
8. From sahih al-Bukhari in the book of bathing.

However this article -which is an introduction for a book- says that the amount is around 110 (in al-Jami' as-Saghir of Imam as-Suyuti , and less then 10 in the six sihah) and they showed them in the download-able full-text version. I'd like to add that most of these narrations are either quoted in both or one of the sahihs (al-Bukhar/Muslim) or qualified as sahih or hassan by scholars.
