But what are the fleetcodes, I know they are ex-K1. lvf.io/Type 315 in there and you'll see it's allocated buses on there. So does it use the whole K1 allocation, I thought its PVR was 4?

No as vjaska said previously it used 4 ex K1 buses with one spare. I sent the tracker link for you to get a rough guide as to which of those 13 plate buses are used.

8325 has not been seen since the 484's transfer. Are they planning to do anything with it?

Last afternoon of Abellio on 481
4 buses out, : 8569, 8578, 8580, 8581. (9-10 year old E200s)
Anyone know what plan is, do they leave, or simply replace some of the 6 remaining 2009 (59reg) E200s (8516, 8519, 8520, 8522, 8524, 8526)

Will the V481 be moving to RATP as well or will Abellio cover (as with 484)?

Will miss seeing Abellio’s variety on the 481 but it’ll more than likely be the same with RATP.

Not sure what these 16reg could be used for after school extras ends - there is the 439/S2 tenders, however Abellio also have the rest of the ex-K1 13reg E200s, plus the 5x dual-door 66reg MMCs (which may no longer be needed for the P13 since the 484 loss).

One of the 481's MMC's, 8140 replaced 8108 at BC on the 367.

The 481 lost the short MMC's a while ago and has been allocated dual door single deckers in the main with it's short MMC's used as school extras as well as 8140 allocated to the 367 at BC

I can't tell for sure whether the ex-route P13 MMCs are due to become the "new normal" on route S4.

They will most likely be used on the S2/439 tenders as they are newer, higher chances to win the tender compared to ex-K1 buses. As for the 5x dual-door 66reg MMCs they will probably most likely be sold on like all the other 5x dual-door 66reg MMCs, no work for them to do. Abellio does have some spare buses.
