Mark,
 
I think you have two good options here:
 
iRule - https://devcentral.f5.com/s/articles/proactive-bot-defense-bypass-by-bot-signature-1150
 
If you set the category to report and the signature has a reverse DNS lookup, then it will bypass PBD (note that you need to setup a DNS resolver). If the current one doesn't have reverse DNS on the signature, you could disable the signature, create a custom signature that does have reverse DNS, create a custom category to put it in, and set that custom category to report.
