    After 3betting pre I don't think I can fold this flop, could easily be draw and some TP hand.

    Could be against a set, but more likely to be against a hand like KJ or QJ IMO. Because of his own stack size, I don't think he's got the right price to call the 3 bet to set mine, so I think you can discount 44 and 77, and he wouldn't (well, shouldn't) have limped with JJ on the button.

    I think it's a snap call, the worst you're up against is a flush draw. The fact he's limp/called the button would instantly make me think if he's bad enough to do that, he's bad enough to go crazy with top pair in a 3 bet pot.

    I think the times you run into a set, you'll more than make up for that with all the times you call and he's got top pair, or a badly played KK/QQ, to be honest. If he's got a flush draw, call and hope it misses.
