Solution

The metal whose oxide is amphoteric is Lead.
The oxide formed by Lead is Lead oxide( $P b O$ ).
Lead oxides are also easily reduced with Carbon and form the metal Lead.
The reaction is, $\underset{L e a d o x i d e}{P b O (s)} + \underset{C a r b o n}{C (s)} \to \underset{L e a d}{P b (s)} + \underset{C a r b o n m o n o x i d e}{C O (g)}$
The metal whose oxide, which is amphoteric is reduced to metal by carbon reduction is Lead.
