what is the best thing to do here?

I fully expected the 3 spade bid and that is why I need to understand what the hell to do here

does the 3 spade bid put off the opps from leading the suit ?

Pass.

Partner has four spades and not four hearts, you cannot realistically expect to make a minor suit game but you do have the values for 3N. They are unlikely to lead a spade into partner's known suit and any other lead can only help.

Try not to overanalyse some of these hands

Heck, even a spade lead helps :-)

I don't see any problem here. Bidding went as one could expect.
3NT should make 4-3♥, 2-3♣, 1-3♠ and 1-4 ♦.
Yes opps won't lead ♠ after easts ♠ bid, so don't expect help there.
A ♦ lead helps to develope dummy's ♦, leads in ♣ and ♥ won't cause a problem.

What's the problem here? Did your partner make 6?
