The preset selects hetatoms as ligands, so you could do:

select motif, (pepseq SYG) and not (name C+N+O)
alter motif, type="HETATM"

there are several h_bond_* settings that control this. (I recommend 
http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Grepset to find settings) For example:

set h_bond_cutoff_center, 5.0
set h_bond_cutoff_edge, 4.0


Cheers,
