Inverters don't like heated and messy engine compartments. Maybe you have enough protected space and ventilation.
3000 watts really should have 6+ batteries to drive the thing. Might get by with 4 but I can't recommend just 2.
Romex is generally fine and commonly used in RVs. Although not designed to be run in conduit so maybe just use the wire loom to protect in critical spots that might rub. Can also get marine triplex stranded wire if you want something more flexible. Custom made battery cables are available too if you are considering DIY.

Do you have a transfer switch?

Sounds like you know what you want. Plugging shore into it is easy, that way everything works. Mine is hard-wired directly to the panel, which accomplishes the same thing.
