There would be identity plates on the vehicle that you need to look at.If you photograph those and show other photos of the vehicle you'll find people here who can help further.

Albion was owned by Leyland in that era and a lot of Albion buses and trucks used Leyland engines, like the 401 here.

What was originally an Albion Viking bus chassis were later branded as Leyland Viking.

Any body builder's plate inside?

Looks like a Smithfield bodied Albion Viking. If you can get a chassis or body number, someone here will be able to accurately identify it.
