That current draw for the coils did seem high, so I checked further into it. Turns out it is the alternator drawing the 3 amps, not the coils. It gets warm to the touch. Is that normal?

The field winding uses power to create the magnetic field. If the alternator is active but not spinning, that sounds like a reasonable draw. IIRC, most fields are on 5A-7A circuit breakers.
