Take a look at the function PEM_ASN1_read_bio
in pem_lib.c, and more specially at the lines
if (!PEM_get_EVP_CIPHER_INFO(header,&cipher)) goto err;
if (!PEM_do_header(&cipher,data,&len,cb)) goto err;
The first line intitializes the cipher from a PEM header like yours.
The second line will decrypt the data with the cipher initialized with
a key derived from the pasword returned by the callback cb function.
