classic WA/WB?

Villain is aggro 46.6/15/2.5 after 253 hands.
Should I be thinking about raising somewhere along the line?

I think after the flop check, calldown seems okay.

Why don't you bet the flop? If you get C-R ed the CO gets out, you know you are dominated - and play accordingly - and you still have decent outs (backdoor flush-straight, 9s, some doubled boards etc) to call the raise. If you think you are WA/WB why not try to find out which of the 2 you are if you can do that by spending less money?

Why check this flop? Am I missing something?

WA/WB means way ahead or way behind?

For me this is a typical "get 1 bet in on each street".
If he checks bet, if he bets call.

If it was headsup and I thought he 3bet with a lot preflop and was pretty sure he would bluffbet on both turn and river if I checked flop I would sometimes check flop and strongly think about a raise on river.

The river, if anywhere. FWIW, I think I play it the same.

EDIT: I missed this the first time, but why on earth would you check the flop?

You have to bet this flop. You don't want CO getting a free card with a hand like JT. I think if you get check-raised by BB, just call down.

Will the villian call a river raise with less than top pair?
