Also, he rates to not have a heart void when he leads the ♥3.

Opps, those goulash deals have just bit us in the ass 
. Someone does not have the cards s/he has promised and there r plenty of voids in here.
But ok lets try to deduct who is closest to have what s/he has promised. If u meant that we r in vuln. and they r not my guess is that its prd. S/he has 10 ♥in hand and 2 minor suit honors.
My bid would be 7♥ and if we go one down...well its goulash and i wont be alone with my dedcision and there r 2 plus sides in that bid u either can go for a smoke when prd struggles or get to defend ♠ contract in 7 level which is easier

i would have bid 7h over 5h. it's inconsistent to bid 7h now, but i'd still do it - just because i was unwise before doesn't mean i need to be unwise now.
of course if partner's double is slow you can't get away with bidding due to the inconsistency

7♥ quickly. That will goad opps into bidding 7♠ which probably goes down.
Goulash is best played with a couple of whiskies in-between. After a while, 7♠ dbled is the only contract you play.. well, ok sometimes 7NT if the side without spades has the ♠A lol.
