CJ quoted: "Are the two "dotted lines" on the wing, in line with the vortex and the nacelle, also two rows of vortex generators?"

im no expert, from the picture seem yes. but from what i read it is not nessasary vortex generator (VG) to be in-line with vortices but it help to channel or to smooth the vortices hence reduce seperation. here some pictures again...

a) Large region of shock-induced flow separation on a swept wing

b) virtually eliminated by antishock bodies
