python3 run_p2pool.py --help
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/ceedii/p2pool-vtc-3.0.0/run_p2pool.py", line 3, in <module>
    from p2pool import main

                    ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I'm getting that error when i try to execute run_p2pool.py

I imagine the issue here is the code not being compatible with python3 :/

Misleading Python >=2.6 got me i guess.
