Have you tried:

def OnSyncMessage(self, bus, msg):
    if msg.get_structure() is None:
        return True
    message_name = msg.get_structure().get_name()
    if message_name == 'prepare-window-handle':
        imagesink = msg.src
        imagesink.set_property('force-aspect-ratio', True)
        imagesink.set_window_handle(self.DrawingArea.GetHandle())
    return True
