Unlikely with the De L'Orean i'll grant you but you might strike lucky somewhere.
I know the Pug 604 used an almost identical drivetrain to the 264 and if memory serves, they also made a 505 V6 which might improve your chances.

The early 604, R30, R25 mk1 and Talbot Tagora used the 2.7 version as well as the Volvo 260 mk1. And the even-fire 2.8 in the later 760 mk1 & mk2 as well as 505, Lancia Thema and R25 mk2 as we've already said would be no good as the cylinder block casting is different. That leaves late 604 (not sure if this was available in UK), 260 mk2 and early 760 mk1 with the odd-fire 2.8.
But all of these cars are incredibly rare now. I think your best bet is a 760 82-85 beaker.
