Hi, would just like to know potentially the best line for this spot. Obviously never folding this flop as played, but on this flop do we raise get it in, or just call flop and play some turns?

A solver would tell you both lines have similar, if not identical EV in theory. I would just check jam, flip the coin, and move on to the next hand. It's never going to be a big mistake at this SPR.

Both plays are fine, I tend to raise more than I call here, that's just me tho.

Jamming or calling both seem fine.
If anyone's put it through a solver, is there any donking? I recall Snowie sometimes donked small with FDs on boards like this in 3-bet pots.

Thanks a lot for the help! I knew both plays were fairly similar, but just wondered how others would have played it. In the end I raised called flop into AA and bricked 2 run outs, but wondered if there was more of a case for calling than raising.
