Stegged with "death" as PW?

Ok, found it, it's:-

Each octuplet seem to translate into a digit. e.g. the first line

The grouping is not random (00100000 translates into a space)

151 040 154 151 153 145 123 040 124 157 040 162 105 141 154 154 171 040 107 145 164 040 164 110 151 156 147 163 040 150 111 104 144 145 156 040 167 105 154 154 056

Which is octal, translating that to ASCII gives:-

i likeS To rEally Get tHings hIDden wEll.

The capitals are:- STEGHIDE


Laughing, that's a cluebat if ever I saw one

EDITED
