I just checked with a number of the old Tech Language guys. No one remembers that DEC ever did an Algol for the Vax.
But the Brits did a "portable" system called Algol68RS at firm called RSRE and Oxford and Cambridge. It originally targeted the ICL boxes, but at some point was made to generate VAX/VMS code and was by a firm called SPL in the early mid 1980s. I suspect Google is your friend.
BTW: some one has a portable compiler for the Algol-W dialect called AWE that is written in C and is supposed to be portable to UNIX boxes. I never tried it.
