It seems that you can't study from scratch for a B3 in the UK as no 147 approved organisations are listed as having the B3 approved. I wish to go down this route, studying alongside my normal career (I also own a sub-2000kg aircraft).
Could you just study the overlap modules and then catch up on 7B, 9B, 11C and 17B when they become available at a 147 approved organisation? I guess it will take a while for the training industry to catch up with the B3.
I have had B3 exam preparation from the beginning of the B3 licence on. The problem is that there are more or less no exam places for the B3 licence. I have asked the UK-CAA if they are providing B3 exams (still waiting for the reply!).
I can re-install B3 modules 7B, 9B, 11C and 17B tomorrow on
www.EASA66.com !
Please let me know where you want to take the exams.

PS: In the past I have recommended to go for a B1.2 licence. This is more or less the same study work, but it allows you to sign for airplanes that are over 2500kg. Flying clubs doing their own maintenace were doing that a lot!
