The correct phrase is "3 years." In this context, "years" is a plural noun that should match the number being described. When expressing a quantity of time, the plural form of the noun is used to indicate multiple units of that time period.

It depends on the context you are using the phrase in. If you are referring to, for example, a young child, you would refer to him as a 3-year-old. If you are referring to, for example, an incident which happened in the past, you would say it happened "three years ago".
