According to this arc, Kakashi became an Anbu at 13 and from this episode it's stated that Kakashi was 23 since he spent about ten years in the Anbu and he had appointed to be jonin leader at this time. Did he require three years to select his team? It's really a long time :( I think it took longer. Naruto is only a child, and he's about 13 when he gets through the exam. So, from that, approximate Naruto's current age in this episode to be about 5-6, so say about 7-8 years.
