Both 3...Nd7 and 3...Bd7 are totally fine.  White isn't playing for +/= in 3.Bb5+ lines.

Sure, I have just been busy lately.

3... Nd7 plays for the win and is the most popular at the top level against the Moscow.

3... Bd7 should equalize:

These are the basic lines.

What about the 5.d4/c4 lines? And the Nd7 line in general.. If someone could post more in-depth analysis I'd very grateful,these are all moves I know

Curious, why dont you play on chess.com?  hard to give advice without knowing what level player you are.

Cause it would be pointless/counterbeneficial. I only play OTB and preferably long games. Other than that I do not wish to reveal anything about my identity or fide rating. I'm interested in chess theory,the kind of that can applied in correspondence games,as such looking for the very best lines,and not merely playable lines. 

I'm currently experimenting about using the Sicilian against e4 but am still very unsure how to proceed against 3..Bb5+
