Some sort of Levenshtein distance search?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

I have a data set with an address string that looks like this:

030 CAMBORNE AVENUE HALEWOOD KNOWSLEY L25 9PQ

I want to search a second data set for all addresses that "look" like this address. The second data set holds address strings like this:

30 Camborne Avenue Halewood L25 9PQ

Almost the same, but a couple of differences. Can ElasticSearch do this sort of thing out of the box, and if so what's the best query type to use?
