I could use some help figuring out the Base Style for this recipe. Any input? 10B American Amber?

For 5 gallons (19 L)
10 lb (4.54 kg) | American 6-row pale lager malt
1 lb (0.45 kg) | 20-40°L crystal/caramel malt
7-10 lb (3.2-4.5 kg) | whole pumpkin
2 oz (56.8 g) | Williamette hops (boiling): 10 HBU
0.5 oz (14.2 g) | Cascade hops (boiling): 2.5 HBU
1 oz (28.4 g) | Mt. Hood hops (aroma)
1 tsp (4 g) | ground cinnamon
1 tsp (4 g) | vanilla bean, chopped
0.5 tsp (2 g) | freshly ground nutmeg
0.25 tsp (1 g) | ground allspice
0.5 tsp (2 g) | ground dried ginger
0.25 oz (1 g) | powdered Irish moss
Ale yeast
0.75 cups (178 mL) | corn sugar or 1.25 cups (296 mL) dried malt extract (for bottling)
 
Category 23. Speciality. It's a spiced pumpkin beer. It won't fit any other category. Call it what you want though, as long as it's not for a competition.
 
Thanks but I am trying to figure out the Base Style, not the category that the finished beer fits into.

American Amber possibly?
