The 733 has a set three vortex generators (about 3cm high) on the inboard and outboard nacelle near the wing leading edge, and a large fin (chine) on the inboard nacelle about a foot forward of the vortex generators.

The MEL allows one vortex generator to be missing at each set (ie four total on the aircraft), but the chines must be there for dispatch.
