Could be a Holdsworth / Mercian / 70’s British builder with those lug details, cable guides and I’ve Dave Yates that has that seat tube cluster but that’s later. Drilled dropouts are nice. Really nice. Well worth a good clean up.
Edit. If your friend was happy to drop the fork out, there might be a serial number stamped on there which might help.
A few more pictures, no serial number under BB, finishing kit is Dura ace (1st gen?) And 531 tubing sticker. So im thinking it was a custom replica of a different bike maybe like the previous owner said. Any one know the bike it might be modelled on? From the Dura ace, I'm guessing it was built up some time in the 70s
