Is a hohmann transfer or bi-elliptical transfer more efficient for this case? How can I find the transfer orbit that conserves the most deltaV?
I will be going from a circular Earth centered orbit to an elliptical sun centered orbit. Assuming the orbits are coplanar.

The semi-major axis and eccentricity of your target orbit will determine whether a Hohmann transfer (i.e. bi-impulse transfer) or bi-elliptic transfer (i.e. tri-impulse transfer) is more $Delta$V efficient.
Here is a paper that explains the equations governing this problem.
