Answer 1

This is pretty messy, yet to clean up the last empty result:

$string = 'base1|123|wen dsj|test base2|sa|7243|sdg custom3|dskkjds|823|kd';
preg_match_all('/(?P(?:[^\\| ]*\\|{0,1})*(?: [^\\| ]*\\|[^\\| ]*(?: |\\z){0,1})*)(?: |\\z)/',$string,$matches,PREG_SET_ORDER);
print_r($matches);

Edit: Actually this is pretty horrible
