Looking through my caught spam folder I found at least one case
where a base64-encoded message body was scanned for keywords.
Here are some of the results:

SPAM: Content analysis details:   (13.70 hits, 5 required)
...
SPAM: NASTY_GIRLS     (2.2 points) BODY: Possible porn - Nasty Girls
...
SPAM: BASE64_ENC_TEXT (1.4 points) RAW: Message text disguised using base-64 encoding

I am running SpamAssassin 2.44, so I know that some released
versions of SpamAssassin can scan encoded content. The message
body in this case also had the type set to text/plain, so maybe
the messages that are getting through your filters are
obfuscated in some other way.
