I think you have a clear 3 bet. In King Yao's book, he has a very interesting discussion of the free card play. Basically, its + EV vs calling if you get bet into less than 60% of the time on the turn. A flop 3 bet is a very powerful move and I think you will your opponents will donk bet the turn far less than 60%. On top of that, calling 2 cold screams flush draw. 3 betting this flop also adds deception to your play if you hit your flush on the turn.

Another point to take into account is the fact that SB 3 bet pf and could very well have an A in his hand w/a higher kicker. By 3 betting the flop, you will force him to fold and buying yourself 2 extra outs. By cold calling, your give him such great odds to call 1 more bet that he comes along for the ride more often then not (I know that in this case he folded but thats not the point).
