BMC is the only survivor, albeit now under Turkish Ownership.

BMC Turkey was formed in 1964 in İzmir by Ergün Özakat in partnership with the British Motor Corporation. The UK-based company held 26% of the capital, with the remainder belonging to the Turkish partners. Both Austin and Morris vehicles were manufactured at BMC Turkey under licence during its early years.[citation needed]

1966 was the first year BMC started adding truck, light truck, tractor and engine production in its product line. Turkish-made Leyland 6/98 diesel engines of 120 hp (89 kW) were used across the line by the late 1970s.

BMC Now:- BMC | Trucks & Bus

I think Leyland survived but not as we knew it , now making small vans in Leyland and assembling DAFs

It got bought out by the Chinese, now making LDV (Leyland Daf Vans) vans and utes, cheap and cheerful crap.
