He was born on January 9th, 1959 or 1960, according to J.K. Rowling and her slightly messed-up timeline.

The series is set in the nineties -- 1991 to 1998, specifically -- so Snape was either 31 or 32 when the series started, and he died at the end of the series, in 1998, at age 38 or 39.

Either 38 or 39. J.K. Rowling's timeline is a bit messed-up, so it is unclear what year he was born in, 1959 or 1960. His birthday is on January 9th, and he was murdered on May 2, 1998, so he had recently turned 38 or 39 when he died.

He was most likely thirty-eight.

Was snape the one who saved Harry potter With his patronus?

Kind of. Snape uses his patronus to lure Harry to the place where he has hidden the Sword in frozen lake. Harry almost dies when he tries to get it, but Ron helps Harry out of the water. Dumbledore (the painting) has asked Snape to make it hard for Harry -- he most certainly does so. If you are talking about the scene in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1. If not then I don't know what scene you are talking about.
