AFAIK, the Br.1030 was envisaged as a kind of proof-of-concept demonstrator, a
single seater with two lift fans. For the 4 engined airliner, I've found no type number
so far.

Excellant my dear Jemiba,

I know the Breguet Br.1030 but the second is completely
new to me,thank you my dear.
 
From Interavia 1958.

The item clearly says it's a Keith-Lucas proposal "<which stems from the Breguet proposal". To me, it implies that the four-fan proposal was a British design inspired by the Br. 1030, and not a Breguet one.
