Turn over delay

I have been having a slower turn over the last few weeks when starting the car (1997 S320). It starts just fine after running, but after sitting overnight, it takes a few to turn over (nothign major, just a few more cranks). I have new plugs, air filters, fuel filter, coil packs, etc...) any suggestions? I was thinking that the ignition cables may need replaced...

Battery is a couple years old, but I will check that. this may sound dumb, but where is the bell housing?
