Nowhere can I find in stats that state Inceptors dual wield their weapons. Plus in Battle Scribe it allows you to only choose Plasma Exterminators or Assault Bolters and again doesn't state anywhere if it is dual wield or not.

With their stats for the Assault Bolter being "Assault 3" does that mean I roll 3D6 for each figure in the unit (9D6 total) or 3D6 per Assault Bolter (12D6 since each unit is dual wielding)?

Page 171 of Codex: Adeptus Astartes Space Marines clearly states how many Assault Bolters the Inceptors have.

Each Assault Bolter a model has fires the amount of shots the Type states.

Don't use Battlescribe as a rules source, read your codex.

You get three shots per assault bolter. Each guy has 2, so you will roll 6 dice per guy to hit with...

How many weapons a model can fire, and how many shots each of those weapons get, are answered in the rulebook (as long as you know the stats for those weapons).

If you don't own the rulebook, you can download the 'Battle Primer' (which is the core rules) from here:

https://www.warhammer-community.com/downloads/

"Each model is equipped with two assault bolters"

and

"All models in the unit may replace their two assault bolters with two plasma exterminators"

That means you get 6 assault bolter or 2D3 plasma exterminator shots per model
