I use plastic reinforced line sets for my sinks. There is no ground path.
Bonding is usually considered for metal that "will become energized" not
"may become energized".
You failed to mention where you are located. I have done electrical work in
the US for over 30 years and have never had to bond a sink. Other countries
or specific requirement of the AHJ of your area are excluded.
