Default Nuts on turn, no redraw -- jam or smooth call? (3/6 live)

I'm not an experienced Omaha/8 player, but was playing the 3/6 kill game at a local casino while waiting for a seat in another game when the following hand came up. At the table there is one strong player, a couple okay players, and a lot of terrible players.

Reads:

UTG+1 is playing his first hand at the table, so no real read (given his conversation with some of the other players, though, I get the impression he's an okay poker player who may be a new to Omaha).

Button is a solid, experienced player, capable of making plays in good spots.

I have a nitty table image because I'm a nit (well, because I don't put much money in without quality hands or quality draws -- so when I bet the turn it should be obvious to anbody at the table paying attention that I have the nuts).

BB is a calling station who overvalues weak hands and weak draws but has been running good.

Preflop: I'm in the CO with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. UTG limps, UTG+1 raises, 2 cold-callers, I call, Button (strong player) calls, blinds and UTG calls.

Flop (16 SB): K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Checks to UTG+1 who bets, folds to me, I call, Button calls, BB calls, UTG calls.

Turn (10.5 BB): T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Checks to me, I bet, Button raises, BB cold calls, UTG+1 cold calls, I ...

(a) 3-bet, call Button's 4-bet and hope the river doesn't pair the board or complete the flush. If the river is safe, then check/raise the Button.

(b) smooth call, planning to check-raise a safe river card, fold to a bet on a scary river from BB / UTG+1.

(c) other (explain).
