As amanda uses tar, you surely can restore a tape (or a portion of

no, amanda doesn't always use tar. See the latter part of the AMANDA
chapter from "Backup and Recovery" for the commands to use "mt" and
"dd" to extract files from the tapes and then use tar from the
command line if that is how the backup was made.
