EvaluateFunction won't return a path type variable; it's being cast to string

[tomkail]

Describe the bug

When calling EvaluateFunction on a function that returns a path type variable, the returned value is a string (without any signifiers such as "->" to indicate it was a path)

To Reproduce

Call EvaluateFunction on a function that returns a path type variable

Expected behavior

Return a path type variable

I'm on version 2.2.5
