Vortex Generators?

Do you think vortex generators in this spot would help keep the air attached longer?

The angle on the under body smoothing panels is 6° leading to this spot, and the exit angle is set to 12.5° or so.

Since the exit angle is so abrupt, would vortex generators help with attached air flow?
