It looks from the photos that there is a bit of a overhang at the pitch change. May be as simple as adding starter vent along that edge and ridge vent on the peak. IF the is ice and water shield on the upper low slope..

That would be my last choice because most guys remove all the wood to install the drip edge, then there is nothing really holding the liner and fasia except 2 nails into the end of the rafters, so it depends on who is doing it a guess.
Do you think that could be done with out removing all the shingle?
