enc0 does what you need but before you use it, remember:

1) before starting, you better change sysctls to:

net.enc.in.ipsec_filter_mask=0
net.enc.out.ipsec_filter_mask=0

so using enc0 does not pass packets over netpfilter rules extra time;

2) don't forget: ifconfig enc0 up

3) tcpdump has no means to filter by inner attributes in case of tunnel mode;
it still shows decoded IPSec transport mode packets correctly.
