Your SIN number should remain same until you get PR.
you just need to renew your SIN number by showing your BOWM to any Service Canada office and they will renew same number and extend to expiry of new BOWP.
I am not sure about OHIP if its number change or not, but you have to visit office & need to extend it.

Are you asking about your existing SIN?
I think your SIN will only change once you become a PR.
You however can renew your OHIP with expiration date same as your BOWP expiry.

Yes - that's what I meant when I said new SIN. For sure SIN number will not change but yes they give you new card.

OHIP is fine if number changes or not changes ...

Yes, SIN stays the same you just get a new card with new expiry date.
For OHIP, I know that in BC with MSP number stays the same, you only get a new card. No changes to any number.
