I don't think we can, based on the header of your Exodus file, which says:

        int connect1(num_el_in_blk1, num_nod_per_el1) ;
                connect1:elem_type = "TRI3" ;

I've seen this problem with SHELL4 in the past (we don't support
SHELL4 for the same reason) but I didn't think it was the same issue
because your file says it has TRI3's.
