Actually the reason why the rdns value is not parsed by Spamassassin in your case
is because your header does not include "Exim" i.e `(Exim $version_number)\n\t`.

The Spamassassin code has a switch[1] which identifies Exim headers and would be able
to parse your header correctly if your "$received_header_text" didn't strip out the MTA
version `(Exim $version_number)\n\t`.

The default "$received_header_text" should work correctly.
