The whole span of every 747 has krueger flaps... the ones inboard of engines 2 and 3 just look different as they don't "curve" as much on extension like the rest. By curving I mean that the extension mechanism increases the camber of the main surface of the flap to increase its effectiveness.

But they are not slats by any definition.
