Would someone be kind enough to help me identify this model, I used this Land Cruiser for 6 months back in 2007 in Kenya and I’ve always been intrigued by the model, I’d love to own one again, I remember it having a very large engine. Would it be a J40 or FJ40?

You are correct, it is a 40 series. The exact model depends on the engine (F for petrol, B for diesel) and the wheel base eg FJ40 short wheel base petrol, BJ43 mid wheel base diesel
 
Thank you, I do recall it being a petrol, I think a 4litre engine? Can you tell from the image what wheel base?
 
It's not easy to tell from the photo but could be an FJ43. The metal between the door and rear wheel arch is slightly wider on a 43 compared with a 40

A picture of my bj46 for comparison.
Yours has the same wheelbase, but the white part around headlights is more rounded. So yours is a 43. 46 is the newer model.
With the (very thirsty) petrol engine it will be a fj43.
