Since your passport is expired, you need to renew your passport first. Then you can go to the local Exit-Entry Adminstration Bureau to pay the fine and get a exit permit. The exit permit is issued immediately after you apply at the bureau, but the time to get your passport renewing is hard to tell and it depends on your country's embassy.

BTW, 5000RMB may not be enough for you to pay the fine, because you have been overstayed for three years.

Overstaying for three years is way too long. Under the new law, you will be detained first while the police verifies your identity. If they determine you are working illegally in China, the fine will increase to 20,000 yuan. They will also contact your country's embassy for a travel document. You may be detained for up to fifteen days. There is also a ten-year ban so you won't be issued any visa for China. Overall, 5,000 yuan is not even close to the fines and tickets combined.
