Love your pseudonym. Wish I had thought of it.
While I've ridden and camped the length of the C&O a number of times, I'm afraid I can't recall or segregate but a few specific campsite features since they are all quite similar. Further, I don't use a hammock such that unique experiences to do so don't come to mind. (A forgetful mind doesn't help.) I can however make a few general comments and, perhaps, others will identify specific campsites.
First, none of the hiker/biker (H/B) sites have any man-made posts or structures from which to rig a hammock. Trees are really your only option. Each of the H/B's is a grassy area created within a wooded area adjacent to the Towpath itself. Many have a few trees within the grassy camping area that you may be able to rig your hammock. If you leave the grassy area, you may also find trees in the adjacent surrounding wooded area.
If you scan the Internet you'll find some pictures of some of the campsites to make your own determination of suitability. You'll also find video clips of some of the sites in the Pedalshift YouTube channel. To find them, go to YouTube and search for "C&O Canal Campsite Reviews" and scroll through them to locate the various Pedalshift channel videos for many of the campsites. Maybe those will help.
